Marnie & I have moved to a neighborhood in Northeast called Brookland.1

It marks the fourth place I've lived in D.C. in nine years (the first three were in Northwest at 30th & N; 20th & Belmont; and 10th & L). Life is good here in Northeast. Actually, it's pretty darn similar except that it's harder to find a cab.

1Whenever I say "Brookland," people think I'm saying "Brooklyn." I've tried saying the word differently, but there's really no way around this confusion.

Until [some year], Georgetown was considered a separate city within the District of Columbia. Thus, the West End was the western end of the Federal City. I assure you, it does exist even if I'm not going to do the research to prove I'm right.
